The whole municipality has an area of about 47,000 square kilometres (about the same size as Denmark) and with a population of only 4,700 there is plenty of room for both people and animals. If you already have experience as a hunter, angler, ornithologist or nature lover there are many possibilities for indulging your interests in the Disko Bay area. Greenland Outfitters Greenland Outfitters are specially educated nature guides specializing in hunting, fishing and ornithology i.e. ecological tourism, and if you are alone or in a group of up to four persons then certainly the best way to experience the impressive nature of Greenland is on a tour alone with an Outfitter and his dinghy. Kangersuneq Ilulissat Tourist-Service and Disko Wild Life built a new Outfitter cabin in the summer of 1996 in the Kangersuneq area of natural beauty, about 20 km north of Ilulissat.

Disko Wild Life - Fishing trip, Greenland OutfittersIt is now possible to get out to the beautiful fiords and lakes of Greenland and experience some of the best fishing for the big Trout which can weigh up to 4/5 kg (9 - 11 lbs) and can give even the most experienced angler quite a battle. If you are not an experienced angler you will see how the skilful anglers can sit silently for hours and enjoy the magnificent scenery only interrupted by intensive fights with the Trout. On our fishing trip there will naturally be authorized Greenland Outfitters who will help with advice and guidance on the great art of fishing. We leave Ilulissat on Fridays at 5 p.m., sail to Kangersuneq and stay overnight in cabins. Early Saturday morning we sail in canoes or rubber dinghies to Qoororssup Tasia and this is where the exciting fishing begins. The whole of Saturday is spent fishing and after a good day with - hopefully - lots of fish, the night is spent in a tent or a cabin. On the Sunday we can fish until midday and at 1 p.m. we depart from Kangersuneq and arrive in Ilulissat at 5 p.m. In the fiords and lakes around Ilulissat there are also plenty of possibilities for all sorts of fishing including fishing for halibut, catfish, cod and salmon.
